 This User's guide is provided as an aid to users of the Model Evaluation Tools (MET). MET is a set of verification tools developed by the Developmental Testbed Center (DTC) for use by the numerical weather prediction community to help them assess and evaluate the performance of numerical weather predictions. It is also the core component of the unified METplus verification framework. More details about METplus can be found on the `METplus website <http://dtcenter.org/community-code/metplus>`_.
 
-It is important to note here that MET is an evolving software package. This documentation describes the |release| release dated |release_date|. Previous releases of MET have occurred each year since 2008. Intermediate releases may include bug fixes. MET is also able to accept new modules contributed by the community. If you have code you would like to contribute, we will gladly consider your contribution. Please send an email to: `met_help@ucar.edu <mailto:>`__. We will then determine the maturity of the new verification method and coordinate the inclusion of the new module in a future version.

-MET support is provided through a MET-help email address: met_help@ucar.edu. We will endeavor to respond to requests for help in a timely fashion. In addition, information about MET and tools that can be used with MET are provided on the `MET web page <https://dtcenter.org/community-code/model-evaluation-tools-met>`_.

 We welcome comments and suggestions for improvements to MET, especially information regarding errors. Comments may be submitted using the MET Feedback form available on the MET website. In addition, comments on this document would be greatly appreciated. While we cannot promise to incorporate all suggested changes, we will certainly take all suggestions into consideration.
 
 **-help** and **-version** command line options are available for all of the MET tools. Typing the name of the tool with no command line options also produces the usage statement.
 
-The MET package is a "living" set of tools. Our goal is to continually enhance it and add to its capabilities. Because our time, resources, and talents are limited, we welcome contributed code for future versions of MET. These contributions may represent new verification methodologies, new analysis tools, or new plotting functions. For more information on contributing code to MET, please contact met_help@ucar.edu.

-The **watch_warn** field specifies the file name and time applied offset to the **watch_warn** flag. The **file_name** string specifies the path of the watch/warning file to be used to determine when a watch or warning is in effect during the forecast initialization and verification times. The default file is named **wwpts_us.txt**, which is found in the installed *share/met/tc_data/* directory within the MET build. The **time_offset** string is the time window (in seconds) assigned to the watch/warning. Due to the non-uniform time watches and warnings are issued, a time window is assigned for which watch/warnings are included in the verification for each valid time. The default watch/warn file is static, and therefore may not include warned storms beyond the current MET code release date; therefore users may wish to contact met_help@ucar.edu to obtain the most recent watch/warning file if the static file does not contain storms of interest.
